  Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l  [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in 
+     several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
+     several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
+     the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
+     and restored.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
+     OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
+     clash.
+     [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
+
+  *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
+     it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
+     other than a simple chain.
+     [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
+     by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
+     adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
+     with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
      is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
      allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
